Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works great in the network. The ability to have your former DVDs on the disk and watch those w/ Plex is great. Really good product for the price.

Nothing could be easier. Hook it up to the WiFi router, set a password, find it on your computer network, and assign it for your Time Machine backups. Quick and easy for all you desk top and laptop computers!

Great product with superior connectivity. Setup is a breeze, easily backup photos and video from my iPhone and time machine works seamlessly.

Software is easy to use and access from anywhere works. Would like more functionality for backing up on demand v. automatically from mobile devices.

Really easy to set up and use. Great for storing data long term

Works as advertised. Saves all my music, photos and videos from my smart phone automatically. Wish it did the same for my computer.

Very easy to use! Was able to back up all my devices and appreciate that peace of mind.

This is a good unit, very reliable and holds a lot

The Personal Cloud installed instantly and was perfectly intuitive for operation instantly mated to my wireless system.

Our time capsule finally gave up the ghost and after some trial and error with other options, we settled on the My Cloud Home 4TB. Setup was easy, and seamless and the handshake with TimeMachine was perfect.

This is a nice affordable NAS Solution. Works fairly well across my network and outside my network. Decent Transfer speeds. Biggest drawback is that its not uPNP and seen automatically on my network. You need to install the WD Discovery Software on the PC you want to use so it will then see the Drive. Wanted to use it as a Media Server with Plex and it works well if Plex works on the Device you are using. FireTV devices don't play nice with Plex. App crashes.

= This isn't a backup solution. Backups should be off-site, generally by a subscription service like Carbonite, not on or under your desk. = This is for remote access to large numbers of files through WiFi. It does that, sort of. It uses syncing, which is problematic because even copying from one folder on the drive to another, the operation is excruciatingly slow. = The product installs a folder on your computer that is accessible only for users on your local network. Who needs that? The files are not accessible remotely. For remote access to files, you have to copy the local files into the remote folder. And you have to install several apps; one of them works but the others are obsolete and no longer work! = The manual is awful. It was written by engineers, not by specialists in communicating to average computer users. For instance, it uses terms that only the in-crowd understand. = All in all, the main benefit of the device is that saves you the cost of VPN.

Love this unit. It was easy to setup and keeps my computer synced and backed up at all times. I especially like the fact it can be used instead of Apple’s cloud to keep pictures and videos backed up. You are also able to invite anyone to use it as backup as well. I was able to not only set my wife up, but my in laws as well. The quality and ease of use are exactly what I expected from Western Digital.

This WD cloud storage drive is exactly what I needed. My wife and I are camera hogs when it comes to our children. I mean which parent isn’t? Now your pics are unloaded from your mobile device right onto this hard drive which hooks up easily to your router. Upload pics virtually from anywhere. The app is easy too. Now I don’t have to worry about ever losing these memories and can access them anytime from anywhere. Thanks WD for making this possible.

I think this product is nice to clear things off and works great was kind of skeptical about doing online storage but this your own personal storage at your own home can save projects and other things on it. Works great on transfers things off phones or computers for storage space.

Pretty slick. Way better then using google or apples cloud. This allows you to use it as if it were a google cloud or an iCloud. Tons of space. Instant transfer, and can see my photos from any location with a cel service or wifi. No monthly subscription is the best part

I bought this device to store pictures and videos from our cell phones and to manage my own data. I was surprised to see it can be used for other cool things i use it as my media server as well as NAS. I play my music and movies on it and store all my pictures and videos very impressed. It works when away from home network as well

This was easy to set up and get going. It syncs with my phone when i get home and it just works well. I wish the app had more feature or a more clear way to merge all accounts but other than that good product.

Apple got out of the router/hard drive business. When mine failed they said they could not recover my terabytes of data saved wirelessly on their device. That there was no wireless solution, “HEY, sign up for our never ending cloud solution.” Well, a quick trip to Best Buy got me this super wireless “Personal cloud” hard drive. Mated with a fantastic netgear router and I am better than ever. Knowledgable sales force, straight story, fair price.

Easy to install and easy to sync the photos. Must buy product. 4tb is enough for saving over 50k photos
